The Store That Sells For Cash Only Can and Does Sell For Less. The Kafoury Store Proves It Every Day It is an established fact that one of the largest stores in New York City sells and buys for cash only, and it is a recognized fact that this store does sell for less in consequence of which it does an enormous business. Now then if the people of New York City have found it to their advantage to buy for cash at this store, isn't it just as reasonable that the people of Salem should find it advantageous and profit able to buy at this store, and pay cash and effect the saving that we effect by selling for cash only. Just think this matter over. You will cone to the conclusion that it pays too well to buy for cash.
